Tried this out. Ndiswrapper now says that my wireless card is not detected. Therefore I cannot continue.

PLEASE get back to me, if possible. I need help.

Into ndiswrapper says hardware present: yes, but in the network manager it just doesn’t appear, i followed every step carefully, but my wireless still doesn’t work.

P. S. The driver is the one which comes into the “windous” vista partition, i mean the driver which works on vista.

Thanks a lot. I hope someone could help me.

ok I got it

If you got the error about RTL8187B.sys file you must first remove the already installed .inf with

sudo rm -rf /etc/ndiswrapper/net8187b

then install again .inf with .sys downloaded
ndiswrapper -i ~/Desktop/net8187b.inf

For me it’t the same…

Invalid driver!

What’s wrong the output of lsusb gives
